Impossible Pie
Description
Impossible Pie is created by blending milk, eggs, coconut, flour, sugar, butter, vanilla, nutmeg, and salt until smooth and then baking the mixture in a greased pie plate at 350°F until golden and set. The resulting pie has a custardy interior with a delicate firmness from the flour and butter, highlighted by the coconut's texture and flavor. Nutmeg imparts a gentle aromatic note, enhancing the overall taste.
This pie is typically cooled completely before slicing, allowing it to firm up. It can be served as a snack or dessert. The coconut adds a tropical element making it distinct from classic egg pies.
For best results, chill the baked pie before serving; it keeps up to a week refrigerated. Reheat gently in short intervals if preferred warm. It can also be wrapped tightly and frozen for up to three months, thawing overnight in the fridge to preserve texture and flavor.
